TITANIUM

I said in my last blog that i didn’t feel safe blogging again after that incident where that pervert, that sick-minded individual, that internet warrior, left a disgusting and insulting comment on my page referring to my horrific rape. On reflection, i decided i was not going to let that idiot shoot me down with his depraved words because i will get up and speak my mind! This YouTube video, Titanium, sums up my feelings exactly!

To that pathetic person, i say “Sticks and Stones may break my bones but names will never harm me”. So….I’ve decided to stand strong and continue to write freely. I have spent my entire life being silenced and i don’t intend to spend any more years in the same way. I will speak out and stand up for myself. I will not be knocked down by mere words. I AM TITANIUM!

Although i currently have some family problems in my personal life, I’m going to keep on moving in the direction that I want to go. I will not be pushed into the corner like a frightened rabbit and be silenced again. If anything, this incident has made me angry, very angry (not an emotion i am familiar with). I will not be constrained and no longer tied by chains. I am an angry but strong woman. I AM TITANIUM!

Writing my memoirs, musings, a little fiction and a lot of poetry as a way of exploring and making the most of my life ... ... Having had a break from writing my blog for more than three years, I decided to return to write my memoirs, some day-to-day observations, views and feelings. My passion is non-fiction poetry. I have a disability and use an electric powerchair called Alfie and let nothing get in the way of living life to the full. I believe that you can never do a kindness too soon and should give credit where credit is due. A smile or a kind word could make the difference between a good or bad day for a person - we never know what's going on for another soul. Those little things, perhaps, practised daily like a mantra, could mean so much to someone else. Thank you for visiting my blog and reading a little more about me. Please, make yourself at home here. You are very welcome. Ellie x 😊 View all posts by Ellie Thompson
